I think Verizon got that when they absorbed Alltel. Alltel had a very
good network.

My coverage from Alltel was really good; Verizon not so good. I think
it's from Verizon eliminating the Alltel towers that duplicated
Verizon's existing coverage.

Trouble is, I had really good line-of-sight to the Alltel tower from my
dining room window (where my desk is located). The Verizon tower that
replaced it is actually about 250 feet closer to my house, but is on the
other side of a hill from here, which puts it down below the horizon.

Apparently, I've been told, if you are in your car or on horseback
and not within 10 miles of a major city, you'd better have Verizon.
Everything else is like a dry Texas county. No bars.

Pardna.

Git along.

I have had phones with all sorts of operating systems--Android,
Windows, Blackberry, now iPhone, and most of the other
also-rans--and I can't recall a one of them that couldn't make a
phone call.

There are variations in coverage areas, of course, but that's
becoming less of a problem. Hell, there's even pretty good signal
here and there on GFM, when for years there was nothing.
